We can let the jobs of tomorrow be created abroad, or we can create those jobs right here in America and lay the foundation for lasting prosperity." - President Obama, March 19, 2009 ACC Installation Sustainability Assessment Report Page ii Moody Air Force Base, Georgia ACC/A7PS EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Due to expanding requirements and diminishing resources, lacking holistic/integrated design approaches; HQ ACC/A7PS has formulated a process for measuring sustainability at Air Combat Command (ACC) installations. This process will establish baseline metrics to identify actionable opportunities and investment strategies, and facilitate year-to-year comparisons. There are many individual efforts already in place at HQ ACC/A7PS and at the installation level. It is within this context that the ACC Installation Sustainability Assessment (ISA) process and report was developed. This report summarizes the current and recommended sustainability efforts at Moody Air Force Base and provides a basis for comparison and benchmarking. Numbers have been calculated for the five sustainability indicators at Moody Air Force Base for their mission support functions. Additionally, flying mission numbers have been established for the total carbon

  • ACC Takes Combat Search, Rescue Assets Under Wing
    ACC takes combat search, rescue assets under wing http://www.ellsworth.af.mil/news/story_print.asp?id=123019174 ACC takes combat search, rescue assets under wing Air Combat Command News Service 4/7/2006 - LANGLEY AIR FORCE BASE, Va. -- Air Combat Command took administrative control of select Air Force combat search and rescue assets from Air Force Special Operations Command Monday as part of a realignment announced in February. The transfer ensures Air Force combat search and rescue, or CSAR, is directly linked to the combat air forces and the personnel they support. This consolidates the management of limited Air Force resources and provides a clearer presentation of force in the theater. Under ACC, CSAR assets can be mobilized faster during a national crisis, integrated into combat training and tasked to support all air and space expeditionary force rotations, ACC officials said. Moving the CSAR mission under ACC will be completely transparent to the warfighter. They will continue, as before, to gain CSAR capability from the owning major command. The transfer will affect most active-duty operational HC-130s, HH-60 Pave Hawks and most combat rescue officers and pararescuemen, as well as the Air Force Rescue Coordination Center at Langley Air Force Base, Va. Units transferred from AFSOC to ACC will not relocate. In addition, Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard units will remain administratively controlled by Air Force Reserve Command and their respective states, but will be gained by ACC or Pacific Air Forces when fully mobilized. Active-duty units affected by the transfer are the 347th Rescue Wing at Moody AFB, Ga., and all subordinate units; the 563rd Rescue Group at Davis-Monthan AFB, Ariz., and all subordinate units; the HH-60G Combined Test Force at Nellis AFB, Nev.; and the Air Force Rescue Coordination Center at Langley AFB, Va.

  • Civil War Veterans in St Clement Cemetery the St Clement Cemetery Is Located on Engleman West of Van Dyke
    Civil War Veterans in St Clement Cemetery The St Clement Cemetery is located on Engleman West of Van Dyke. It is the biggest of our area's pioneer cemeteries the first known recorded burial was March 27, 1854. It is possible that there were a few before that date. Over 800 burials date from the nineteenth century and over 1,500 burials prior to1943. There are over 200 veterans buried in St Clement Cemetery. See historian Wesley Arnold's free CD of Warren- Center Line Records which has pictures and indexes of all of the old grave stones in both Warren's Union Cemetery and St Clement's Cemetery. These two cemeteries hold most of the remains of the pioneers of Warren. There were also local farm burials prior to 1850 but records of these are lost. One house on what was the old River Road has a stone marker. Visit my Historical web site at macombhistory.us where there are lots of pictures.
